    3. When growing up I though people called him Chow. Others say he was called Chal. Apparently I wasn't the only one who heard Chow because I have heard others say they thought he was called Chow, so he was probably called both Chal and Chow. This obit. says he was born in Sesser, but Sesser did not exist in 1900. He is part of both my Brown family and Lewis family lines.
